Abstract
“Chrysalis” simultaneously reflects the upsurge in industrial activity in northern Greece in the early 20th century and the social, economic, and political conditions in the wider area of Goumenissa and the region of Central Macedonia. The complex was studied in the context of the Interdisciplinary Collaboration Seminar, a key component of the Interdisciplinary Program of Postgraduate Studies “Protection, Conservation and Restoration of Cultural Monuments”, Faculty of Engineering, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, during the academic period 2014–2016. The postgraduate students’ team consisted of archaeologists, architects, civil engineers, a rural and surveying engineer, and a mechanical engineer. The project includes a series of studies covering historical research and documentation, surveying, architectural and structural analysis, identification, interpretation, proposal for reuse, structural reinforcement, exhibition of industrial machinery, museological study, and lighting design.
